30 People Who Spotted Celebrities In Public And They Acted In A Way That Suits Their Character
226Kviews
It would an obvious lie to say that none of us have ever dreamed about meeting our celebrity crush. Running into them in a theater? Or maybe seeing them on a hiking trail that you jog on every morning, while the rising sun colors the horizon in the perfect orange hues? Ah, but when people do actually meet celebrities, it's usually much more mundane and the setting is not what most "mortals" expect.
On February 28, an American author from New York City, Jaya Saxena, decided to ask her Twitter followers about their celebrity encounters. And not just any encounters, but as she put it "most accurate celebrity sighting". What does that mean? Well, it probably implies that the timing, setting or the actions that the celebrity was seen taking somehow seems "fitting" to their personality, or a character that they played.
It's little surprise that people flocked to share their stories in a Twitter thread that followed Jaya's original request. Scroll down below to see what celebrities people happened to see and in what setting. Oh, and don't forget to comment an vote for your favorites!

I am picturing him very elegant with the Sound of Music soundtrack playing in the background.
About 20 years ago, I had the good fortune of having Luke Perry in the office next to me at work on the Fox lot. He wasn't there very often, but when he was we'd chat like old friends. He was really the opposite of his "cool character" persona - very nice, humble, fun, down to earth. When I saw the news today I wanted to share with others about the wonderful man I got to know many years ago.
Thank you. So terribly sad. I don't usually cry when a celebrity passes away, although Robin Williams and Alan Rickman still make me cry, but I cried and am still weepy about Luke Perry. Others in entertainment have shared what you have, decent, humble, kind. The world is poorer for his passing.
I was the same, I used to hang up on people if they dared ring me during 90210, I was not girly crushing on him or Brandon, but the show was just everything at the right age for it to be. I was very shocked and cried seeing that first thing this morning.
I loved his performance as the "psychic" conman on an episode of Leverage. He was also one heck of a Side Show Luke Perry on the Simpsons....
I always felt like he was the coolest character - in the sense that as a real person he just seemed like a great person.
Should I be ashamed that I don't recognize half or more of these names?
No, they are just people.
As long as you know your own name, everything is ok. And Sean Connery. Both are critical.
Well, him, Bill Murray, and Robin Williams. Everyone else...
I has to Google 23/30...
I can understand a handful of them. Most are pretty huge stars in their field though.
Ashamed? No. Consider reading more newspapers? Maybe...
how could you???! I just wanted to ask "who are all these people"
Nope.I'm not.
ikr!?
People are people. Pointing a camera at them doesn't make them anymore special than an average joe. Never did understand people that get "star struck"
They're people playing roles in stories and worlds people wish they were a part of. When they play their role, well, they can touch your heart and people can't help that reaction of idolization. Like how kids get excited when a fireman visits or sees someone in a superhero outfit. It's just human nature. Even celebrities get star struck over other celebrities. Sometimes at the same time when meeting each other.
I am inclined to agree, or I should say I was at one point inclined to agree. Then I was less than 10 feet away from Robert Plant (A man I have obsessed over for many years and my favorite singer of all time) and I cried like a bitch. Not just during his performance either, I cried for months afterwards every time I heard a Led Zeppelin song and I listen to Led Zeppelin a lot so it was on a very regular basis. I have seen a lot of bands in person, been right at the front for some of my favorites and really enjoyed myself. But when Robert Plant I finally saw Robert Plant I crumbled like a cookie.
